    Burned on Ebay

    I have a another well known Dubow RMNZ A2 that two well respected members of this forum were owners of before me! It has the worn stitching in some places also.

    I contacted Shaul, and he Said IT could be something he had done in the past! Good point about the repair. IT sure feels like it is very old looking at the leather and some of the original buttons (some are replaced). Cheees Joakim
